not mean to have it inferred that the
girls who stand behind the counters
are given to wedding the male costum-
er they wait upon. Such things do
happen. l suppose. but not frequently
enough for consideration, the fact being
that nothing could be worse for a
counter girl in big New York store
than for her to be courted while on
duty. If her employers did not dis
charge her the other girls would tor
ment her beyond endurance. Meetings
between the girls and their beaux on
the way home from work are not to be
taken in consideration, for the lasses go
home in troops. and are merciless tea

by the way. employs detectives to see
that no young fellows hang about the
store at closing time TO meet the count

mony that is directly in the stores, and
is exceedingly fruitful. The male en-
ployes. buyers. cashiers, and even the
members of the firms get very many
wives from among the girls whom
they meet every day and grow to adj

A Woman's Discovery.

"Another wonderful discovery has
been made and that too by a lady
in this country. Disease fastened its
clutches upon her, and for seven years
she withstood its sovcrest tests, but
her vital organs were undermined

three months she coughed necessarily,
and could not sleep. She bought OF
us a bottle of DIR. Kings New Dis

that she slept all night and with one

California wines ta the East

That California wines are rapidly
increasing in favor in the East is evil
denced by the following, from Bon
forts Vine Circular, OF recent date:
SIN reviewing the figures OF the
business for the past year there is
nothing more striking and gratifying
than the large increase in the receipts
of California wines. That these wines
are growing fin popular demand at
most rapid rate is without question.
We have heard several theories ad-
vanced to account for the reason why
they are now going into consumption
as California wine when they have
been seemingly neglected by the peo-
pie East. The true reason is that CAL
ifornia is now producing good, whole
some table wines, and these are being
bought and used in place OF the
cheaper grades OF foreign wine. 1t
does not take the public long to ac-
quaint themselves with an article OF
merit. Ii there is as much improve
ment in California wines in the next
ten wears as there has been in the
past wear, the resources of that State
will be taxed to supply the demand.
During the past year the shipments
OF wine from California by rail were
largely in excess of those OF 1885, be-
ing 4,69S, 725 gallons against about
5000, 900 for that year. The ship
ments by the Pacific Mail steamships
and by sea direct show cor
responding decrease, as will
be seen from the following
table, covering period OF six years
1881, l 1866 gallons; 1882, l,271,-
1872; 1888, 2, lac, 1874 1884, 500, 754
1885, LIZ, 1887 ; 1886, 695, SS5. The
receipts of California brandies by sea
during the past year show an in
crease over those of 1885, as will be
seen from table: 1881, 30 ,243 gallons
1882, 81, 69S; 1888, 1866; 1884, 32,-
1876: 1885, 81 ,233; 1886, 40,309. The
shipment by rail from California dur
ing the year amounted to about 200,-
009. The arrivals OF California wines
by the Pacific Mail steamships dur
ing the month amounted to 50, 1872
gallons. Last December 81 AS gal
Ions arrived. OF California brandies
we received during the last month vi
of 1880, 2,05S gallons. Last year in
December 92S gallons arrived.
